Acne is a nasty skin disease that affects nearly 17 million Americans and finding the right acne cure or acne care can be difficult, expensive, or detrimental to your health. Treating acne effectually within a short time is easier said than done. This is because of the root causes, overactive sebaceous glands, hormonal changes and hereditary factors. Though acne prevention during adolescence is not entirely possible, there are several methods for natural acne cures that are effective for quick recovery.
1. Tamanu oil possesses antibacterial and wound healing properties. It also has soothing and rejuvenating effects on the skin. While using tamanu oil for acne, it can be applied directly, or in mixed form along with aloe vera. In addition to reducing acne outbreaks, it is effective for acne scar removal in the natural way.
2. The second thing you can change is your diet. Eating a balanced diet may seem very difficult at first. It may prove to be as difficult as taking 10 minutes off to relax at first. But it's well worth it. And after a while, eating a balanced diet will become second nature. You definitely want to skip on the fast food. All things considered, fast food isn't that fast anyway. There are plenty of tasty and healthy recipes that only take 10 to 15 minutes to prepare. And if you get the munchies during the day, skip the sugary snacks and eat some raw fruits and vegetables instead. Give it a try for about a week you'll be surprised with how much you begin to enjoy a daily salad, a bowl of fruit or a handful of nuts.
3. Nutmeg and milk mix is another great way to get rid of your acne. Grind fresh nutmeg with milk and apply to your effected area on your skin. You will see results within a week!
4. Use an exfoliating wash occasionally. Exfoliating washes may cause too much damage to use daily, so instead use one once every few days or once a week. For a cheap exfoliant, add sugar to your daily face wash. The small granules of sugar help draw out dirt and remove dry dead skin.
5. Needless to mention, tea tree oil possesses antimicrobial properties. Concentrated oil of the same can cause skin irritation and burning sensation. Before using tea tree oil for acne treatment, first make a 5 percent strength by combining 2.5 ml tea tree oil with 47.5 ml water. Apply this solution with a cotton ball before sleep.
6. Spot treat acne with benzoyl peroxide. A small tube of benzoyl peroxide is inexpensive or you can use the store brand to save even more money. Benzoyl peroxide works as an anti-bacterial. It kills the bacteria that causes acne and dries out the skin to prevent future breakouts.
